Yes sir, whatever you say sir, I’m sure you’re correct sir.

Trans women are not men in dresses, he says very earnestly, somberly nodding his head along with his own assertions.

“They’re certainly not predatory men,” he adds firmly.

How the fuck would you know that, sir? How would you, for instance, know that no predatory men at all call themselves trans women? How could you know that? How could it be knowable?

It couldn’t. You can’t know that. You can’t see into the minds of every single man on the planet who claims to be trans.

“A trans woman is a woman, with all of the rights that a woman has,” he explains. Aha now we get to it. The point is, men who claim to be women get to claim all of the rights that a woman has, thus removing them from actual women.

He then expresses weird naive shock-horror that some people don’t believe his dogma. Be patient with us, sir. Keep in mind that we have thought we knew that men are not women for a very long time now.

UN experts just aren’t what they used to be.

    So is he saying that there’s no such thing as predatory men in dresses? He should have consulted the actual authorities on the matter, TERFs. We could help him out with some examples.

    Or if there is, those men are not really trans – a “no true Scotsman” fallacy.

    “All the rights that a woman has.”

    Let’s see–the right to be paid 20% less than men.

    The right to be overlooked for promotions.

    The right to be ignored.

    The right to have men claim their good ideas.

    The right to be raped.

    The right to be forced to carry a pregnancy to term against their will, even at the risk of permanent injury or death.

    The right in some countries to be forced to wear a burqa.

    The right in some countries to be denied an education.

    The right in some countries to be allowed outside the house only in the presence of a male relative.

    So many rights they’re being denied.
